Pros

Great benefits, products, and met some great people along the way

Cons

The consumer sales role is not a sales role at all. It’s a glorified call center and the job is really misrepresented when hired. The entire department is run very poorly. Management doesn’t care about sales or the money that is going into your pocket. They just want you to make as many calls as possible a day and that’s all they care about. The sales structure is horribly laid out and a lot of times your sales are not able to be confirmed. Hard to make a living on such little pay. The base salary is low and the commissions are not much better. Management doesn’t care about anyones career growth. People are stuck in the position for many years and don’t end up going anywhere. Seriously consider a different job if you are looking for a sales job. I’m sure there are other great areas within the company but the consumer department specifically is a very toxic and negative work environment.

Pros

At Coloplast, one of the key strengths is its global scale and diversified portfolio across multiple divisions. The company is particularly well established and highly respected in the ostomy space, with strong brand recognition and a solid reputation among clinicians and healthcare systems

Cons

Limited access to key contracts within the Advanced Wound Care (AWD/WTR) segment, creating barriers to growth and competitiveness * Product pricing not consistently aligned with perceived clinical value or market positioning * Ongoing quality concerns reported with foam dressings, impacting confidence in the portfolio * Lack of visible acknowledgment or accountability from leadership regarding field challenges * Perception of misalignment between field feedback and leadership response, with concerns not always addressed transparently * Limited cross-functional support for sales teams; heavy reliance on field reps to gather insights without sufficient internal analytical or evidence-based backing * Missed opportunities to provide structured, data-driven support to strengthen customer conversations and value messaging
